Becoming an Anti-Racist ELA Teacher: Classroom Application

Hannah Gray Season 1 Episode 8

In this episode we are dig a bit deeper into the classroom application of becoming an anti-racist ELA teacher.  Last week, I talked with three professors from NC State University about their white paper about this topic.  Today, I talk with two English  teachers from Grays Creek High School, Melissa Bishop and Joel Mayo, about how they are putting some of these practices into action in the classroom.  Melissa is also the president of the North Carolina English Teachers Association and talks briefly about what that organization is doing to promote anti-racist work through North Carolina.
